OH (ohio) (2008) continued the Lambchop tradition of releasing challenging, mold-breaking records, revealing endless charms and nuances with their customary modesty. Each Lambchop record represents a new stage in the evolution of their distinctive sound. Damaged saw Lambchop songwriter Kurt Wagner leave the porch from which he had viewed the world for so long and start looking inside himself, his dark meditations on mortality and human frailty matched by a band capable of taking delicacy to delicious new heights.
OH (ohio) continues this expansion of their collective horizons: highlights include the slow-motion soul folk of "Slipped Dissolved and Loose," the shuffling shimmer of the brilliantly titled "National Talk Like a Pirate Day," the somber majesty of "Please Rise" and the intimate sentiment of "Close Up." Melodically stronger than ever, the gentle hook of "A Hold of You," the wordplay of "Please Rise" matched by a heartbreaking simplicity, OH (ohio) also sees their trademark leisurely pace imbued with a notion of beat and movement driven by recent recruit Scott Martin's drumming, most notably on the surprising, almost funky coda of "Popeye."
Unyielding to the vagaries of fashion, working entirely on their own terms and responding purely to their artistic muse, Lambchop have earned the considerable respect they now command.

Visit Pitchfork TV to watch the Lambchop concert film, Live at XX Merge in its entirety for one week only! The film and audio from this incredible event are available exclusively in the Merge store.
To help celebrate Merge’s 20th Anniversary Lambchop showed up in one of their largest lineups in recent memory — 11-strong, including multiple guitars, keyboards, piano, and a horn section. Lambchop performing live is always a powerful proposition, but on this night they started quietly with “I Will Drive Slowly” from their first album (I Hope You’re Sitting Down) and accelerated from there, each song seemingly faster and more intensely played than the last, building to a furious finale of “Up With People” and an epic “Give It.” By the end of their set, everyone in the packed Cats Cradle – band and audience both – was levitating a few inches off the ground…

As Merge fans know, Lambchop has been on the label since 1993, releasing a string of widely varied but consistently brilliant records. But the live Lambchop experience has been somewhat elusive in the U.S. While the band has toured the gilded theaters of Europe and elsewhere for nearly two decades, the Nashville group has seldom toured their home country. Kurt Wagner has performed solo on a recent Yo La Tengo tour, and Lambchop supported their recent album, (OH) Ohio, as an intimately stripped-down quintet in a couple of short bursts over the last year. To help celebrate Merge’s 20th Anniversary the band showed up in one of their largest lineups in recent memory — 11-strong, including multiple guitars, keyboards, piano, and a horn section. Lambchop performing live is always a powerful proposition, but on this night they started quietly with “I Will Drive Slowly” from their first album (I Hope You’re Sitting Down) and accelerated from there, each song seemingly faster and more intensely played than the last, building to a furious finale of “Up With People” and an epic “Give It.” By the end of their set, everyone in the packed Cats Cradle – band and audience both – was levitating a few inches off the ground…
Lambchop’s set at XX Merge was professionally recorded and filmed, and is available now for those who missed it, or for those who want to go back again.
